Urban centers, due to high population concentration and non-availability of firewood or any other alternative, are the main consumers of charcoal.Over 98% of the urban households use traditional inefficient charcoal stoves, and most of the rural and nomadic population use firewood and inefficient biomass stoves.
One of the specific objectives of PROSCAL project is to promote alternative sources of energy to reduce local consumption of charcoal. Hence, the activity carried out in Kismayo, Jubaland is part of the components of the project. A team from the Directorate of Environment and Climate Change (DG and/or Deputy DG of the Directorate, Senior PROSCAL Coordinator and a staff member of the Directorate) travelled to Kismayo, Baidao, Beletwein and Dhuusamareeb to handover.
